The AMG 6.3-liter V8 engine generating a power output of 464 kW (631 hp) and 635 Newton meters of torque is a byword for thrilling driving dynamics, making the SLS AMG Coupé Black Series the most powerful AMG high-performance automobile with a combustion engine at present.

The coil-over AMG RIDE CONTROL performance suspension, the AMG ceramic high-performance composite brake system and the weight-optimized forged AMG light-alloy wheels with newly developed sports tires combine with the electronically controlled AMG rear-axle differential lock and the AMG SPEEDSHIFT DCT 7-speed sports transmission featuring uncompromisingly emotional shift and response times to raise the SLS AMG Black Series to a new level. The AMG Aerodynamics package is optionally available to further boost the vehicle's driving dynamics.

The design of the SLS AMG Coupé Black Series derives a special fascination from its similarity to the SLS AMG GT3 customer sport racing car.

The car’s sporting genes are obvious at first sight. The design is predominantly wide, muscular and dynamic. The rear of the SLS AMG Coupé Black Series presents a brawny appearance on a par with that of the front end.

A particularly high-quality and exclusive Black Series detail is the so-called "3D seam" which runs horizontally along the dashboard: a fine Alcantara® strip in anthracite features across the entire width of the leather covering.

The process of determining the visual appearance of the SLS AMG Black Series is one that is rooted with posing an initial question: “What are we trying to achieve?”… When the answer to that question is “To create one of the most pursitic examples Driving Performance ever produced”, the process is, indeed, an interesting one.
